iTero digital scanning is an advanced technology that enhances the way dental professionals assess and treat oral health. At our office, we utilize iTero scanning to create precise, three-dimensional images of your teeth and gums, providing a comprehensive view of your oral structures. This state-of-the-art imaging system replaces traditional impressions, offering a faster, more comfortable and highly accurate alternative for treatment planning and diagnosis.
The iTero scanner is a handheld device that captures up to 20 images per second, rendering a complete and highly detailed digital model of your mouth. Unlike traditional impression methods that require messy putty and extended setting times, iTero scanning is quick and noninvasive. The scanner’s intraoral wand glides comfortably over your teeth, capturing precise, full-color images in real-time. These images provide exceptional clarity, allowing our dentists to assess tooth wear, gum health and potential alignment issues with unmatched accuracy. One of the key advantages of iTero technology is its ability to automatically save images throughout the scanning process, eliminating the need for repeated scans. This ensures a seamless, efficient experience while reducing appointment times.
iTero scanning enhances the precision of various dental treatments, from orthodontics to restorative care. With its high-resolution imaging capabilities, the scanner aids in designing dental crowns, bridges and veneers that fit perfectly. It also plays a crucial role in clear aligner therapy, as it integrates seamlessly with orthodontic systems used to design Invisalign® clear aligners. By capturing detailed scans of your teeth, iTero technology can generate an accurate preview of your anticipated treatment outcome, helping you visualize the final results before treatment even begins.
One of the primary benefits of iTero scanning is the comfort it provides. Patients no longer need to endure the discomfort of traditional impressions, making the experience especially beneficial for those with sensitive gag reflexes. The process is also significantly faster, reducing overall chair time while improving efficiency in treatment planning. Additionally, iTero’s digital accuracy ensures that restorations and orthodontic appliances fit better, ultimately leading to improved treatment results and greater patient satisfaction. If you are interested in learning more about iTero digital scanning and how it can enhance your dental care, contact our office today and make an appointment with our dentists. We are committed to providing advanced technology that makes your experience more comfortable and your treatment more effective.
My experience was very warm and welcoming no complaints, the dentist explained everything to my satisfaction. I'm certainly pleased with my new dental home.
Amazing experience!! I came for a cleaning and had an extraction. They put my bridge in today and I am truly amazed by the results! The staff is so kind and thorough.
I would follow this dentist across the country if need be. I followed her to every county she’s been in and continue to not be disappointed. She is amazing
